Baby Ahaana, the first baby born in Newton in 2013

By Evan Allen, Town Correspondent

Baby girl Ahaana could not wait for her Jan. 3 due date, and instead rang in the new year as the first baby born in Newton in 2013, according to a spokeswoman for Newton-Wellesley Hospital.

Proud first-time parents Sameeta Bilgrami and Prem Ramasamy of Waltham welcomed Ahaana into the world at 12:08 a.m. in Newton-Wellesley Hospital. She weighs 6 pounds 15 ounces.

Ahaana beat Boston’s first official New Year’s baby by one minute. Sophanie Sejour delivered a little girl at 12:09 a.m. at Massachusetts General Hospital, according to a spokeswoman.
